What is this white sauce mentioned at the beginning of the recipe?

For each cup of white sauce: 1 TBS. butter, 1 TBS. flour, 1 C. milk. Melt butter, stir or wisk in flour, add milk gradually while stirring. It will thicken up like a gravy.

Be sure to cook the flour in the butter at low heat for 5-10 minutes before adding the milk. That will take away any unpleasant raw flavours from the flour.

The longer you cook the butter and flour the less thickening it will do. I only cook my butter and flour for about a minute before adding the liquid. I like a nice light blond roux that thickens and quickly.
 
I don't cook my roux for white sauce and I've never noticed a floury taste. It is only a tablespoon to a cup of milk. I learned in high school Home ec., and it has been one of my best lessons, because by swapping out ingredients I can make any kind of sauce or gravy. Without lumps! i.e., bacon grease instead of butter, stock or broth for the liquid.

This is the only place where I don't cook the roux. I like my white sauce white. I also don't use pan drippings after frying. There are always some burnt bits and I don't like the flavor. If making something like chicken fried steak, I make my white sauce separately so as to avoid that burnt taste from the drippings.

I used the chicken fat and fond no butter to make my gravy the other night it was yummy.
